Chibi doll Yara is a Chibi Amilishly Doll made for a Dutch yarnbox with handdyed yarn. Yara is made with handdyed yarns to show you can also use this type of yarn for amigurumi patterns. Yara measures about 14 cm’s when I crochet her with a 2.5mm hook. When you go up a hooksize, she might be bigger, but proportions remain intact. This means gauge isn’t important.

This pattern is currently available in DUTCH.
An English (US) version of this pattern will be available at a later time

Chibi doll Yara is a crocheted doll with attached clothing. This pattern includes the doll with her dress, and headband. She is made seamless, so no seaming parts afterwards.

Yarn:

• Scheepjes Catona in 1 color for the skin of the doll: Color is Sweet Mandarin.
• Wol met Verve Merino Sock Mini’s in different colors for the hair of the doll and her clothes: 5 different shades of this handdyed yarn were used. Please use two strands of the fingering weight yarn to make DK. The pattern tells you which yarns to hold double.

Hook:
This doll is crocheted with a 2.5mm hook and the suggested yarn above. It’s important to crochet tight enough, since you don’t want the fibrefill to show. Also don’t crochet to tightly it’ll be a strain on your wrists. If you crochet loosely, please go down a size. If you crochet tightly go up a size. The proportions of this girl stay intact.

Gauge
In single crochet: 15 sc x 15 rows measures 5x5 cm, using Scheepjes Catona and a 2.5mm hook.
Gauge, however is not important for this pattern. Different hooks and different yarn give you a different size for your doll, but the proportions stay intact.

Notions
Needle for weaving ends, scissors, fibrefill, stitchmarker. Also needed: glue and pins for her hair.
